BTW just to confirm, since I don't think you stated. Basically this happened in a parking lot at idle? And the motor just shut off on you? Sound bad before it shut off? I assume no CEL's before the motor died? Just want to check that it's not something like bad tensioners or chain guides(i.e. those would trigger a CEL but might not kill the motor).

You can bend the valves turning the motor over with a ratchet if you roll through it.
if it started at all it could have bent the valves. Posted via Mobile Device |

Absolutely true, but the amount of damage if the valves are bent is likely significantly less than if he dropped a valve. Depending upon how severely they are bent the repair costs could be significantly less compared to if he dropped a valve.

it wouldn't start - it tried but sounded like crap, there was some smoke - not much - but some.

Thanks Jason for giving it a look. According to the web - I'm seeing it's a non interference - well, not now - but when it happened - I seem to recall finding it as such when i looked on the web.
Can one of you all look? I'm tired. 2006 Audi A4 3.2L FSI non-turbo - non-quatro |

Hey SR, I have a CP connection should you want to take Sauto up on letting him work on your car. I know you could get it to him for not a ton of scratch. Something to think about, I would let him work on anything of mine, even if it meant towing it to his State.
